One of the books I am compiling is of images I take of hearts I find in my travels. The images seem to look best in a small format and I began toying with the idea of doing them as Polaroid transfers, where the actual image size would be around 3 x 4". I also thought the Polaroid transfer process might give the images more of a nostalgic and primitive feeling. Today I made some transfers of a few of the images to see how they would look.
I used a
Daylab CopySystem Pro to transfer the digital prints onto
Fuji XP-100C instant film. The prints were pre-prepped in Photoshop to compensate for the color shift and lost of contrast inherent in this system of copying. The negative from the Fuji print was lifted prematurely and its latent image transferred onto 140lb
Arches Aquarelle Hot Pressed Watercolour paper.
Several samples are posted below.
